Rabiot: I'm staying to drag Juventus back to winning the Scudetto

Adrien Rabiot feels he has an "unfinished job" at Juventus.

The France midfielder penned a new deal earlier this month and held a lengthy media conference yesterday.

Rabiot said: "The last two seasons without trophies have been difficult. I came here to win. Juventus are a great club that have always won and will win again in the future.

“Two years without trophies is a long time for a club like Juve. The goal this year is about winning, I stayed for this too, to drag the team to win the Scudetto, the cup.

“I want to bring Juventus back to where they belong. Then I felt I hadn't finished my job here. When I arrived here, we played in the Champions League and we won the Scudetto, and I want to experience these emotions again.

“Home means that I feel very comfortable here, I feel good here. When you go elsewhere, you don't know what you'll find. Here I have found an environment that I like, the people here on and off the pitch are extraordinary.

“It was a choice with my heart and I didn't want to leave all this behind. The work didn't end here for me, there are many things to do, which we need to improve. I think I can still grow. For these reasons, I stayed at Juventus."
